Legal Updates

On July 31, 2018, the Massachusetts Legislature passed
long-debated legislation aimed at reforming the law
surrounding non-competition agreements. Non-competition
agreements are commonly used to restrict competition
following the ending of the employment relationship. If
signed by the Governor in its present form, the law would go
into effect October 1, 2018 and significantly alter the
landscape related to non-compete agreements for employers
and employees in Massachusetts.
